About

C-RED 2 Lite is a compact high speed low noise TEC-stabilized SWIR camera, able to run at 600 fps with 30 electrons readout noise. With an optimized algorithm for precise sensor temperature stabilization, C-RED 2 Lite does not make any compromise on camera performances.

The most recent addition to the C-RED family, C-RED 2 Lite is the stabilized version of C-RED 2 with no fan. It can also be water-cooled for better performances with an optional cooling plate. With an optimized algorithm for precise sensor temperature stabilization, C-RED 2 Lite does not make any compromise on camera performances despite environmental fluctuations.

The camera integrates a 640 x 512 InGaAs PIN photodiode detector with 15 micrometre pixel pitch for high resolution, which embeds an electronic shutter with integration pulses shorter than 5 microseconds. C-RED 2 Lite is specially designed for quantitative applications such as laser beam profiling, hyperspectral imaging and thermography.
